News Flash: Michel Fornier will attempt his 40 km 'jump' this Monday.

The news is starting to get more coverage up here in Canada.
This Monday, weather permitting, the daring French adventurer Monsieur Fornier,
will attempt to jump out of a balloon gondola 40 kilometres above the Saskatchewan
wheat fields.
The air will be so thin it will have a density of about 1/300th to 1/400th of the air
at sea level.
The sky will be black.
The horizon curved.
He'll be able to see as far as my city, Calgary, Alberta, about 300-400 miles away.

Bravo, Monsieur Fornier!
Eh bon chance!
